    rigoberthareviews.com/baththa-an-e... Baththa at times feels like a companion piece to Karthik Subbaraj’s Jigarthanda; another solid movie about a brutal gangster and his metamorphosis. Vijay Sethupati in the titular role does a fantastic job as expected. #Baththa #VijaySethupati #SaiPrithviraj

    There's a south indian movie called Baththa where the main guy gets stuck in a toilet atleast half the movie. It's also really heartfelt. It might be on Netflix in other countries too.
